Re: [NTG-context] page layout

6 Apr 2010


      Hi,

\setuplayout
   [backspace=1cm, % am I right to comment out this line? - No  
backspace defines where the textblock starts from the left
    % leftedge=1cm,			%edge is reserved for screendocuments, where  
you can have margin and edge spaces
    % rightedge=2cm,
    % leftedgedistance=0cm,
    % rightedgedistance=0cm,
    leftmargin=1cm,
    leftmargindistance=0pt,
    rightmargin=2cm,
    rightmargindistance=0pt,
    % width=7cm, % either "fit" doesn't suppress the above mentionned
               % whitespace
    width=fit,
    topspace=1cm,
    bottomspace=1.5cm,
    %header=...,
    headerdistance=1cm,
    %footer=...,
    %footerdistance=...,
    height=middle,
    location=middle,
    marking=on]

Hi,
Hi,
...
you will have to give more paramters to the \setuplayout command
...
  leftmargign=1cm,
  leftmargindistance=.5\em,
        rightmargin=2cm,
  rightmargindistance=.5\em,
        width=fit
        ...
I think I'm misleaded by the (my) confusion between "margins" and
"edges".
Here's what I use, it's almost satisfying but I've a small amount of
space at the left edge of each pages and the whole layout isn't
double-side.
\definepapersize[book][width=10cm,height=18cm]
\setuppapersize[book][A4]
\setuplayout
  [%backspace=1cm, % am I right to comment out this line?
   leftedge=1cm,
   rightedge=2cm,
   leftedgedistance=0cm,
   rightedgedistance=0cm,
   leftmargin=0cm,
   rightmargin=0cm,
   width=7cm, % either "fit" doesn't suppress the above mentionned
              % whitespace
   topspace=1cm,
   bottomspace=1.5cm,
   %header=...,
   headerdistance=1cm,
   %footer=...,
   %footerdistance=...,
   height=middle,
   location=middle,
   marking=on]
\showlayout
\starttext
\input tufte
\stoptext
